·         It will be acceptable for the experiments to run multi-user pilot jobs without requiring identity switching for a period of 3 months (i.e. until end of February 2010)

o   This means that we are temporarily and exceptionally suspending the identity-switching requirement of the existing JSPG Policy on Grid Multi-User Pilot Jobs: https://edms.cern.ch/file/855383/2/PilotJobsPolicy-v1.0.pdf;

o   During this time problems with workloads at a site will be the responsibility of the VO – i.e. The entire VO could be banned from a site;

o   The situation will be reviewed after 3 months, or earlier if needed due to operational or other circumstances.

·         The deployment of glexec and SCAS (or equivalent) should proceed as rapidly as possible at all sites.  The versions of both components for SL5 are now available.  Note that SCAS is the solution for EGEE sites, other implementations of this function may be implemented elsewhere, but glexec must be deployed as the interface for the pilot jobs to use.

·         The experiments that propose to submit multi-user pilot jobs should endeavour to ensure that their frameworks make use of these tools on this same timescale.

·         We will implement a test to validate the availability and usability of a glexec installation at a site.

·         The long term policy requirements of traceability and the ability to ban individual users from a site remain unchanged, but we agreed to start a review of how these requirements could be better managed and implemented in the long term to satisfy the needs and constraints of sites and experiments.
